Example 4.2
Rotation matrix, b
Derive the beta, b , rotation matrix.
The following variables are represented in Figure 4.3 and are used to
develop b . The location of y remains unchanged since rotation is occurring
about that axis.
b = rotation about global Y axis from the global to the local system
( x 0 , z 0 ) = global coordinate location
( x l , z l ) = local coordinate location
